Map of Russia's special operations in Ukraine, the advance of Russian troops, militar

An archive episode of the battle of the Ukrainian fourth company, at one of the strongholds, the location of the shooting is not reported. The video is shortened, showing episodes explaining the essence of what is happening and showing active moments of the battle. Russian artillery, drones and mortars are firing at the stronghold. Nearby, there is a shootout with a Russian unit. At first, the stronghold is attacked by a Russian FPV drone, it flies away, but when it returns, it hits two soldiers in a trench. Then, to change personnel, an armored personnel carrier YPR-765 arrives at the stronghold. The soldiers try to evacuate, but the armored personnel carrier breaks down. After this, they decide to abandon the combat vehicle and go on foot. When leaving the combat vehicle, one soldier is wounded in the arms and legs. Then it is reported that two more are wounded. The soldiers decide to drag the wounded man, after which a mortar mine explodes nearby. The soldier who filmed this video is wounded in the leg. The fate of the soldiers is unclear, as two wounded remain in the trench, and a soldier with the call sign Hector leaves. The video ends here. It is worth noting that the stronghold is open, it was impossible to defend it, judging by the video, there is not even a dugout.

An episode of the Russian evacuation group in Ukraine. In the video, a Russian Desertcross-1000 buggy, made in China, is used to evacuate two wounded soldiers. Technical information about the Desertcross-1000 buggy is on the channel. During the evacuation, Ukrainian FPV drones try to attack the group twice. A serviceman fires at the drones and, risking his life, tries to distract their attention from the wounded. The exact location of the shooting is not reported, the video is shortened.

An attempt to break through the Ukrainian army into the Belgorod region of Russia on March 18. The breakthrough was in the direction of the settlements of Demidovka, Grafovka and Prilesye. There were 5 attacks in one day. The tactics were the same as in the Kursk region, a lightning breakthrough in small groups, an attempt at any cost to go as far as possible into Russian territory. To repel the Ukrainian attack, Russian units used FPV drones, Lancet drones, Vandal drones and artillery. Iskander missiles, Tornado-S MLRS, TOS Solntsepek were used in the areas where Ukrainian units were concentrated in the Sumy region, and 40 FAB-500 bombs with UMPK were used.

Data on the number of Ukrainian forces varies, but it is reported that there were 29 units of military equipment, including 5 tanks, 16 armored vehicles, 4 cars and 200 servicemen. Ukrainian engineering vehicles UR-77, IMR-2, "Winsent 1MC" made passages in minefields. After that came armored vehicles. Bradley IFVs, M113 armored personnel carriers, BMP-1TS "Spis", tanks and other equipment were used. The infantry used ATVs. Data on March 18, on the losses of the Ukrainian army is inaccurate. It is preliminarily known, 60 people, 3 tanks, 3 engineering vehicles, 5 armored personnel carriers and a passenger car. On March 19, there was another attempt by the Ukrainian army to break through to the Belgorod region of Russia.

Ukrainian and some Russian channels reported a large-scale attack by FPV drones on the coastal air defense of Crimea. The models of equipment that came under attack are signed, they are also indicated in the description of the video. It is worth noting that there is no radar in the world that can reliably record FPV drones. This is the whole problem with air defense now. Why is this happening. Ukrainian naval drones with FPV drones on board are approaching the coast of Crimea. FPV drones take off and attack coastal infrastructure. Communication with FPV drones is carried out through communication repeaters. The Starlink satellite communication system is used. Why did this happen. Presumably, the coastal area of Crimea is not sufficiently patrolled by UAVs and aviation. Perhaps in the coastal part of Crimea, Russian electronic warfare does not jam Starlink communications. The shortened video shows strikes over several days. Attacks by Ukrainian drones are shown, but there are no facts of equipment destruction, despite this, the equipment could have been damaged.

Rare footage of objective control of the use of the high-precision Russian 152-mm ZOF95 Krasnopol-M2 projectile in Ukraine. The location of the shooting is not reported. The projectiles are used by the Russian self-propelled gun 2S19 Msta-S. More information about the 3OF39M Krasnopol-M projectiles is in the link to the video in the comments to the video. Information about the ZOF95 Krasnopol-M2 projectiles is still classified. The ZOF95 Krasnopol-M2 projectiles were also developed for the latest 2S35 Koalitsiya-SV self-propelled guns; they use a laser seeker, which provides high accuracy. In this case, the Russian projectiles were used to strike a Ukrainian fortification unit located in a basement. Strikes at temporary deployment points of the Ukrainian army are also shown. Judging by the destruction at the site of the explosion, the hits were accurate.

Rare and high-quality footage of a Russian Ka-52M helicopter using Vikhr-M guided missiles. The video was filmed on the border of Ukraine with the Belgorod region of Russia, near the village of Maryino. When Ukrainian equipment crossed the border, the Ka-52M helicopter destroyed an M2A2 Bradley ODS-SA infantry fighting vehicle and an unknown model of Ukrainian tank using a Vikhr-M missile. These missiles can also be used by the Mi-28NM helicopter.

Technical information about the Vikhr-M missile

The Vikhr anti-tank missile system was developed in the Soviet Union as an analogue of the American AGM-114 Hellfire ATGM. The serial modified version of the 9K121 Vikhr-M began to be delivered to the troops in 2015, the Vikhr-1 missile is equipped with a tandem charge that penetrates armor up to 1200 mm, at a range of up to 10,400 meters. The main purpose of the Russian Vikhr-M missile is to destroy armored vehicles, including those with active armor, as well as air targets at speeds of up to 800 km / h. The launch altitude of the missiles is up to 4,000 meters. The flight speed of the missile is more than 600 meters per second. Initially, the missiles were intended exclusively for Su-25 aircraft and Ka-52 helicopters, but now work is underway to adapt the Vikhr-M complex to the Mi-28NE and Mi-35P helicopters, as well as the Orion-E UAV.

Footage from an archival battle filmed in November 2024 near the village of Zeleny Shlyakh in the Kursk region of Russia. In the video, two BMD-4M airborne combat vehicles of the 137th Guards Airborne Regiment of Russia break through to a Ukrainian army stronghold located in a forest belt. It is worth noting that there is very little video of the combat use of the BMD-4M. The BMD-4M has been produced since 2015. During the forced march, the BMD-4M is actively fired upon by Ukrainian artillery. Upon reaching the stronghold, the BMD-4M disembark the troops and return to their original positions. The battle at the stronghold itself is not shown; it is reported that it was captured.

Despite the ongoing fighting in the Kursk region, the Russian army has begun to remove abandoned military equipment from the Ukrainian army. There is quite a lot of equipment, we are publishing some footage of it. Some of the captured equipment was destroyed, some was damaged, some are fully operational. For example, two abandoned Ukrainian M2A2 Bradley ODS-SA and an HMMWV armored vehicle with a mileage of 14 thousand kilometers are operational. The HMMWV armored vehicle even had fuel, and is already being used by Russian units. The video also shows an abandoned Ukrainian Aqaba Petra Hunter APC armored vehicle with electronic warfare systems, an International MaxxPro armored personnel carrier, an IMR-2 engineering vehicle, an M1A1 SA Abrams tank, and other military equipment. The captured armored vehicles are sent for study, to firing ranges, to exhibitions, and to some combat units.

The first use of Russian lasers against Ukrainian army drones. The Russian army has published footage of mobile groups working to combat Ukrainian UAVs. The servicemen are armed with small arms with thermal imagers; it is worth noting that Ukraine has similar groups. More interestingly, the Russian army is using new air defense systems, including lasers; the authors did not report which systems. The video suggests that the new Russian SKVP air defense system is being used; it was tested in the Moscow region, or the Pantsir-SMD-E air defense system. The video shows a radar used in both air defense systems. It is also clear that missiles are being launched to destroy drones. A review of both air defense systems is available on the channel. The video shows that the air defense can detect small targets with an RCS of 0.05. Laser air defense is more interesting; the video shows a laser burning through a Ukrainian drone, after which it falls. It is not yet clear what kind of lasers the Russian army is using. The air defense system interface resembles the control program for Chinese Silent Hunter combat lasers. Saudi Arabia previously purchased them to combat drones. It is possible that the Russian army simply adapted the software for Russian lasers. Over time, the information will most likely be made public. The downed Ukrainian drones are shown at the end of the video.

The Russian Su-34NVO fighter-bomber was able to make an emergency landing "on the fuselage" for the first time in history. Before this, the Su-34 dropped FAB aerial bombs in the border area of the Kursk region of Russia. The aircraft's hydraulic landing gear release system probably failed. It was reported that the aircraft was being flown by young pilots, they could have ejected, but decided to land the plane. The pilots "shot off" the cockpit window in advance so that they could quickly leave the aircraft after landing, since the lower exit was blocked.

The Russian Antagonist group, which uses FPV drones controlled via fiber optic cable, showed the pursuit and attack of drones on a Ukrainian BTR-80. The video was filmed in the Kupyansk direction. The BTR-80 was first produced in the USSR in 1984, and is also used by the Russian army. Despite the fact that the BTR-80 was developed a long time ago, three FPV drones were needed to destroy the combat vehicle. The "Mangal" installed on the BTR, which protects the combat vehicle from drones, also played a role in this. As a result of three attacks by Russian FPV drones, the Ukrainian BTR-80 was destroyed by a fire that started. The fate of the crew is unknown

Ukrainian media published footage of a strike by Ukrainian HIMARS rockets on a group of Russian Ka-52 and Mi-8 helicopters in the Belgorod region. If the video is real, and such footage is easy to fake these days, the helicopters were refueling and being serviced. There are some strange moments in the video, it is cut off, there is no result of the strikes, the shooting location is not reported, the coordinates are blurred. The video shows the explosion of GMLRS M30A2 rockets next to three helicopters, with one helicopter very close. Another strange moment, after a direct hit on the helicopter, in slow motion footage, which shows another missile strike. The helicopter previously destroyed by the missile is not on fire. With a direct hit by a missile, the helicopter should burn. If the video is real, then one helicopter should be destroyed, the second is heavily damaged, the other two are lightly damaged. Let me remind you that the Ka-52s are armored.

The Ukrainian army continues to try to break through to the Belgorod region of Russia from the Sumy region of Ukraine. BMPs, armored personnel carriers and engineering equipment are used. It is worth noting that the use of equipment is decreasing, servicemen mainly use ATVs. Now Ukrainian military equipment most often reaches the border with Russia, and from there the infantry moves independently using forest belts. The goal of the Ukrainian army is to create a bridgehead in the Russian border village of Demidovka. Some servicemen of the Ukrainian army have already been spotted on the outskirts of the village. To repel the attack, Russian units are using FPV drones "Prince Vandal Novgorodsky", drones "Upyr" and other types of drones. Aviation and artillery are used. At the same time, the 56th Airborne Regiment of Russia entered the border part of the Sumy region of Ukraine and began to conduct military operations there. Why is Ukraine attacking the Russian border in different places?! According to our version, this is stretching the front line, Russian forces are stretched and cannot concentrate on striking somewhere in one place. At this time, the Ukrainian army is creating lines of defense. Since there is no general mobilization in Russia and there are not enough soldiers, it will be difficult to break through the Ukrainian lines of defense later.

Removal of abandoned Ukrainian Bradley IFV and BRDM to Russia for repairs. Captured Ukrainian military equipment was delivered to the location of the Tula Guards Airborne Unit of Russia. An American-made M2 Bradley IFV, a Turkish Kirpi armored car, and a Soviet-made BRDM armored vehicle were taken out for repairs. The BRDM is also used by the Russian army, but in a modernized version. More details about it are in the link to the video in the comments to the video. In the video, you can see how the BRDM armored vehicle was repaired and the mechanic's story about it.

Operators of Russian FPV drones showed footage of the interception of the Ukrainian UAV Leleka-100. The video was filmed over the Kherson region. The Leleka-100 UAV was developed by the Ukrainian company DeViRo. The Leleka-100 UAV is used for reconnaissance, patrolling and mapping of the area, with the ability to transmit operational information. The model of the Russian FPV drone is not reported. As a result of the air ram, the Ukrainian Leleka-100 UAV was shot down. The element base of one of the drones of the Leleka-100 UAV. The basis of the computing unit of the Lelika UAV is a microprocessor with DSP STM32H743XIH6, in fact, this is an ARM processor with a Cortex-M7 core, operating at a frequency of 480 MHz, there is a built-in flash memory of 2 MB and 1 MB of RAM. Developed by STMicroelectronics (Switzerland), manufactured by TSMC (Taiwan), the DO-AP200 block itself is assembled by Hong Kong Jobray Co. Ltd., which also has 2 GPS ports (GPS and UART4 ports), accelerometer/gyroscope: ICM-20689, ICM-20649, BMI088, magnetometer RM3100, barometer MS5611 and several RC inputs (CPPM) with a communication module, on components from FPE and CIS.

Footage of the use of the Russian FPV drone "Prince Vandal Novgorodsky", abbreviated "KVN", controlled by a fiber optic cable. The video shows an attack by a Russian FPV drone on a Ukrainian armored personnel carrier International MaxxPro. Judging by the video, the MaxxPro armored personnel carrier was abandoned, the reason is unknown, visually the combat vehicle is not damaged. The International MaxxPro armored personnel carrier is manufactured in the USA by Navistar International and was accepted into service in 2007. The location of the shooting is not reported. Presumably, this is the Kursk region of Russia, since most of the Ukrainian military equipment is now abandoned there. As a result of the strike by the Russian FPV drone "Vandal", a fire started in the Ukrainian armored personnel carrier International MaxxPro.

An episode of a battle at a stronghold of the Ukrainian army located in a forest belt. The video was filmed in the Rubtsovsk direction, this is in the Donbass. The video shows the assault on the Ukrainian stronghold by the Russian assault detachment of the 16th separate special forces brigade, the "West" group of troops. It was not possible to establish which Ukrainian servicemen participated in the battle. As reported, there were 5 Ukrainian servicemen at the stronghold, as a result of the battle, two of them surrendered.

A unique incident occurred during the fighting in the Orekhov direction in the Zaporizhia region of Ukraine. Two Russian BTR-82A were moving towards the village of Malye Shcherbaki, and a Ukrainian BTR M113 was driving towards them. For an unknown reason, the Ukrainian BTR M113 did not engage in combat and, having pulled off the road, let the Russian BTR-82A pass. The Russian BTR-82A did not stop and continued to carry out their combat mission. In the video, you can also see the smoke screen being laid using the Russian BTR-82A, episodes of the battle of the 19th motorized rifle division of Russia, and the attack of the FPV drone "Prince Vandal Novgorodsky" on a Ukrainian T-72 tank in the area of the village of Novopavlovka in the Orekhov direction. What happened next with the Ukrainian BTR M113 is not clear from the video.
